Item Rock–bit interaction effects on high-frequency stick-slip vibration severity in rotary drilling systems(Emerald, 2021) Mendil, Chafiaa; Kidouche, Madjid; Doghmane, Mohamed Zinelabidine; Benammar, Samir; Tee, Kong FahPurpose: The drill string vibrations can create harmful effects on drilling performance because they generate the stick-slip phenomenon which reduces the quality of drilling and decreases the penetration rate and may affect the robustness of the designed controller. For this reason, it is necessary to carefully test the different rock-bit contact models and analyze their influences on system stability in order to mitigate the vibrations. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of rock-bit interaction on high-frequency stick-slip vibration severity in rotary drilling systems. Design/methodology/approach: The main objective of this study is an overview of the influence of the rock-bit interaction models on the bit dynamics. A total of three models have been considered, and the drilling parameters have been varied in order to study the reliability of the models. Moreover, a comparison between these models has allowed the determination of the most reliable function for stick-slip phenomenon. Findings: The torsional model with three degrees of freedom has been considered in order to highlight the effectiveness of the comparative study. Based on the obtained results, it has been concluded that the rock-bit interaction model has big influences on the response of the rotary drilling system. Therefore, it is recommended to consider the results of this study in order to design and implement a robust control system to mitigate harmful vibrations; the practical implementation of this model can be advantageous in designing a smart rotary drilling system. Originality/value: Many rock-bit functions have been proposed in the literature, but no study has been dedicated to compare them; this is the main contribution of this study. Moreover, a case study of harmonic torsional vibrations analysis has been carried out in well-A, which is located in an Algerian hydrocarbons field, the indices of vibrations detection are given with their preventionsItem Hybrid sliding PID controller for torsional vibrations mitigation in rotary drilling systems(Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science, 2021) Mendil, Chafiaa; Kidouche, Madjid; Doghmane, Mohamed ZinelabidineDuring the drilling process, the drilling system devices can be exposed to several types of phenomena incited by lateral, axial, and torsional vibrations. The latter can lead to severe damages if they are not efficiently controlled and quickly mitigated. This research work is focused on the torsional vibrations, which are stimulated by the nonlinear dynamical interaction between the geological rocks and the drill bit. Wherein, a model with three degrees of freedom was designed to demonstrate the severity of the stick-slip phenomenon as consequence of torsional vibrations. The main objective of this study was to design a robust controller based on hybridizing a conventional PID controller with sliding mode approach in order to mitigate rapidly the torsional vibrations. Moreover, a comparative study between PI, PID and sliding mode controllers allowed us to emphasize the effectiveness of the new hybrid controller and improve the drilling system performances. Furthermore, the chattering phenomenon in the sliding surface was overcome by using the saturation function rather than the sign function. The obtained results proved the usefulness of the proposed controller in suppressing the stick-slip phenomenon for smart industrial drilling systemsItem Unknown Resistive Torque Estimation of a Rotary Drilling System Based on Kalman Filter(Taylor & Francis, 2020) Riane, Rami; Kidouche, M.; Illoul, R.; Doghmane, Mohamed ZinelabidineRotary drilling systems are widely used in petroleum engineering to drill oil and gas wells. Control of drilling process is a very important topic because it allows industrials to optimize drilling cost, improve borehole quality, and protect equipment. Many researchers have dealt with the control of rotary drilling systems, wherein, the main difficulty is that the rock-bit interaction term is highly nonlinear, and mathematical models simulate its dynamic but with insufficient fidelity because of the lack of measurement devices for bottom torque for these systems. In order to design an efficient controller, it is mandatory to have the model highly loyal to the rotary drilling system, which can represent the dynamic of the system under the rock-bit interaction term. The objective of this study is to estimate the unknown input torque based on Kalman filter, the estimation has been validated on a test bench. Moreover, it has been noticed that Kalman estimator has better efficiency in comparison to the pole placement method. The algorithm has been implemented on CompactRio using LabView environment and applied to experimental equivalent system to rotary drilling system equipment
